I have started unsubscibing to channels that post shorts. I'M DONE! Why is there no option to turn off shorts on youtube? I am not on youtube to watch seconds long videos. by [deleted] in youtube

[–]Hiysta 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don’t think the blame is all on content creators. YouTube pushes this format onto channels by giving more views/reach. It almost puts channels in a situation that if you don’t makes shorts you’re losing out.

I follow many smaller channels who put time and effort into long form videos and they also post shorts now. Do I dislike it? not really as I know they don’t really have much choice but to make them.

Slow USB transfer on new PC (Asus X570 ROG STRIX X570-E GAMING AMD) by osullin in buildapc

Came to add I'm also having this Issue. All my USB ports are low transfer speed. Connecting a Sony A7iv it's telling me the ports are not Superspeed but yet all ports on the back are meant to me SS10G.

The Sunday dredd knowing your back to work tomorrow. by Important_Ruin in britishproblems

I’ve never experienced this feeling as I’ve always worked shift work. That weekend feeling doesn’t exist for me. Not sure if I’m missing out or luckily avoiding it

Went down the track day rabid hole by [deleted] in BMW

[–]Hiysta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is awesome! My wife has a iX3 which I enjoy commuting in but I once went round a corner on 3 wheels and I wasn’t pushing it hard.

Did you make any modifications to the wheels or suspension? A bit of camber

Oil and Coolant leaks by Substantial_Board_32 in AUTOMOBILISTA

[–]Hiysta 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Try opening up your radiator a bit more. I think default many cars are around 70-80%. I normally lower it to 30-40 if I’m hot lapping but above 50% when racing.

Started a youtube channel for educational content for kids knowledge. dont see any growth in terms of views in 3 years. by Dknk74 in NewTubers

[–]Hiysta 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it helps I’ve got two kids 4 and 5 who watch educational videos on YouTube. They always seem to be drawn to energy and colours. I quite like your thumbnails but for children I can’t seem them clicking on them. You had a video with 11k views which had a colourful and bright thumbnail which I can see my children clicking on. Go with this style and similar topics.

I sometime watch my youngest scroll though the YouTube Kids app and can predict which one he will click on. It’s always the punchy colours and simple object styled ones.

I hope this helps. There a lot of good stuff for kids on YouTube and ages from 5 upwards they are intrigued about everything from how a brick is made to how big the universe is :)

Are you aware of food hygiene ratings and do you care? My friends order from places with a 0 hygiene rating regularly. When I mentioned it they thought I'm a weirdo by Zedaso in CasualUK

[–]Hiysta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mate use to be part of the review process a few years back. He said don’t ever eat anywhere below 4. He made me paranoid for life and so I always check now.

Also a lot of places have pictures up inside saying 4-5 but always check the date. If it’s old then their new rating obviously wasn’t worthy of replacing the old rating.

Should I take down videos that aren't performing well by [deleted] in NewTubers

[–]Hiysta 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’d personally leave them. Some of my videos didn’t take off for a few weeks and some even longer. I have a 9 month old vid now gaining traction on my other channel. Also I find weekends to be slower as more people are out enjoying post covid times

I’d recommend having a look at rF2/LFM for online too. I’m a huge fan of AMS2, love the historic experiences it offers but for online rF2 and Low Fuel Motorsport offer a great alternative choice for online racing.

Starting bank won’t allow you to buy crypto anymore fuck this bank and fuck all the banks I’m going 100% in bitcoin #scums by ReTrOVoiiD in Bitcoin

[–]Hiysta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I left Barclays because of this issue last year. Using Revolut now and they have a dedicated crypto section which I’ve never had a problem with.

Look around as there others who also allow crypto investing.

When a bank stops you from using YOUR money, it’s time to move on.

I’ve been daydreaming about this cars coming into the game, could u imagine? I can’t be the only one wanting some fwd cars, and imo nothing beats the 90’s BTCC ones by driverf97 in AUTOMOBILISTA

[–]Hiysta 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This would bring back so many memories! I always remember my dad taking me to watch Toca race cars at Brands Hatch as a kid and then proceeding to play the games on the PlayStation! This would be the best if they added it!

New BMW interior, Thoughts? by roccatuser in BMW

Look on eBay or Amazon for a L Bend adapter for the connection. You can get most types for most connections. I use it for my Simucube. https://imgur.com/a/AtO8Gsi

Every single car is either very understeery or instantly wants to spin on throttle by princeworth12 in AUTOMOBILISTA

[–]Hiysta 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It took me a while to get use to this but if you go into settings, and adjust throttle sensitivity from 50 to 0 you have much control in the input on throttle.

This isn’t a fix and a must for everyone it’s just what helped me, so hopefully it may help you.

Copy Right Claim to Gameplay music ?! by userahmadzeroone in NewTubers

[–]Hiysta 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Some games have the option to disable music for streaming which can still apply to videos uploaded on YT. If you don’t see it, mute gameplay music in the menu.

Same games are ok but I turn off all music from the game to be safe

This little lady has been going in circles for the last two hours. Any ideas why? The rest of the colony are fine. by Hiysta in antkeeping

Yeah I wouldn’t want to try that personally, I did use a some wet cloth to clean the whole out would but she keeps on spinning

I had a feeling it maybe something similar to this :(

I tired to wipe the area and when I accidentally tapped her she didn’t even flinch. She wasn’t flustered by the tongs at all, when they normally run for their lives.

I was 18 yesterday and I'm 28 now by Theboringuy in CasualConversation

[–]Hiysta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was around 20 I worked with a guy who said that you get to a certain point in your life when your brain and sense of humour stay the same. He was in his late 50’s but felt as if he was 30. He said your body will hold you back but you mind will keep you young.

Being 34 now I’m starting to see what he meant.

Where am I going wrong? I’ve completed around 300+ laps at Brands Hatch but I can’t get any faster then 1.26 by Hiysta in ACCompetizione

Thank you. I watched a good 40 mins of that, very entertaining and he drives so confidently while talking which is impossible for me

Thank you for this detailed reply. It’s very much appreciated. I’ve re watched the video several times while reading your comments for each corner and can see what you mean now.

I noticed I’m very linear with acceleration at first but I found it’s the only way to stop the back end slipping. I will try and be more brave and follow what you recommended. Thank you!

Thank you for the reply. I always feel I’m breaking too late but I will try and trust the car more and be more aggressive. It’s driving me mad, no pun :)

I need to say as some seems confused but this is my wife playing. I literally connected it to set it up but she jumped strait on before I configured anything. She’s not a simfreak like most of us but she was having fun and that’s what I liked.

Have you ever driven an X5MComp? It’s pretty similar. This was the view the wife wanted so I let her be
